The SkyWatcher StarQuest 90MC pairs a Maksutov-Cassegrain optical tube with a 90 mm aperture and 1250 mm focal length (f/13.8) with the new StarQuest equatorial mount — a more capable alternative to classic equatorial designs. Thanks to the friction-clutch system on both axes, inherited from the AZ-EQ Avant, it delivers smooth, silent movements without sudden jolts or unwanted friction. With the clutches engaged, the slow-motion worm-and-wheel controls (122-tooth gear) allow fine and precise pointing.
Polar alignment is simple and quick: using your smartphone’s level function, set the latitude angle on the dedicated knob and aim the mount towards the Celestial North Pole. From that point, just the RA slow-motion control is enough to keep any object centred in the field throughout the session. The mount is light and compact; the foldable aluminium tripod features an accessory tray for eyepieces and your smartphone.
